NBA 2K23
SCORE: 78
Did you catch the live stream Peter and I performed of NBA 2K23 on
the Rumble video site? We have downloaded and processed that live stream
into a video that will be appearing on our various video sites as time
allows. The modes within NBA 2K23 are MyCareer, MyTeam, Jordan
Challenge, Play Now, MyLeague, Features and 2KTV. If you like the NBA,
WNBA, blacktop and more then you may enjoy NBA 2K23. I honestly did not
notice a lot of difference between NBA 2K23 and previous years.
The biggest complaint I have about this entire franchise and series is
the momentum meter. It makes zero sense to me. I can make three shots in
a row and then miss three in a row. Want to know a secret? I am taking
the same six shots with the same basketball player. How are they missing
them sometimes and making them others. You can have two defenders on you
and make it. Then be all alone and miss it. I never know what animations
will show in NBA 2K23.
There is plenty of music within NBA 2K23 that you may find offensive. I
had to turn off the music one song at a time. There are no descriptors
for lyrical issues with the songs within NBA 2K23. How is that being
missed? I did not find one song within NBA 2K23 that I enjoy listening
to. The same went for Noah, Peter, and Yolanda. I guess basketball
people like these songs. They are not my taste and I listen to all kinds
of different musical styles.
The presentation feels more real within NBA 2K23. The halftime still has
Shaq and he still does not look quite right. A Papa John’s commercial
within NBA 2K23 would have felt pretty real in my opinion. The courts
and players look good within NBA 2K23. The fans get excited if the home
team is starting to pull away near the end of the game. The biggest
things I noticed concerning NBA 2K23 is the increased realism.
The Jordan challenges are interesting and cool within NBA 2K23. I like
how NBA 2K23 swapped between real video and the art from the video game.
That was a pretty neat transition. If you really like basketball I would
recommend waiting to purchase NBA 2K23. It will drop in price pretty
soon. I am thankful I had the money to purchase NBA 2K23 on the
Playstation 4.
